Bader's War: 'Have a Go at Everything'

Más información sobre el libro

Douglas Bader, a legendary British fighter pilot, overcame the loss of both legs in an accident to command the Canadian Fighter Squadron during the Battle of Britain. His resilience led to multiple escape attempts from German POW camps, including Colditz Castle, prompting captors to confiscate his prosthetics. Despite his flaws, Bader's achievements during WWII and his later advocacy for disabled charities are notable. This study utilizes newly available memoirs and documents to present a balanced view of his remarkable life and legacy.
